Conservatives work hard to convert people to the conservative view.

Then, when someone converts or becomes a stronger conservative other conservatives castigate them, call them names and refuse to accept them.

Why?

Is ideological purity at birth an absolute requirement?

Romney says he has become a more solid conservative over the years and is booed.

McCain says he left most of his leftist ways behind and became a better conservative after Super Tuesday when he realized he needed our votes and some conservatives are converted to McCainites after one speech.

You know, when he told Katie Couric 3 months ago that a "parent" of an otherwise adoptable surplus frozen embryo (in fact he used the word "adoption") could be "donated to research" and concluded that was perfectly "acceptable," then it shows he's still got quite a ways to go...ESPECIALLY since he said the embryonic stem cell issue was THE VERY ISSUE that "converted" him to the pro-life side.

You can't get more "pro-choice" then a politician saying that a "parent" can acceptably "donate" their offspring to be "dissected" to death.

The fact that this doesn't bother many pro-Mitt FReepers tells me a lot about their own priorities about life in the womb.
